AbstractUniaxial compressive strength (UCS) has become a highly essential strength parameter in the mining, civil and geomechanical industries. Estimating the exact value of the strength of rock has become a matter of great concern in real life. Despite this, there have been many works to indirectly/directly estimate the UCS of rocks. This study introduces a novel ...... hiện toàn bộ
Tóm tắtKhi các vật liệu khai thác tự nhiên ngày càng hiếm và kinh tế, ngành xây dựng đã chuyển sang các lựa chọn bền vững như chất thải xây dựng và phá dỡ (C&D) và kính tái chế cho xây dựng đường. Mục tiêu của nghiên cứu này là đánh giá hiệu suất của các hỗn hợp bao gồm kính tái chế (RG), gạch nghiền (CB) và cốt liệu bê tông tái chế (RCA) dưới các điều kiện gia...... hiện toàn bộ

Efforts to reduce the weight of buildings and structures, counteract the seismic threat to human life, and cut down on construction expenses are widespread. A strategy employed to address these challenges involves the adoption of foam concrete. Unlike traditional concrete, foam concrete maintains the standard concrete composition but excludes coarse aggregates, substituting them with a foam agent....... hiện toàn bộ

Given the importance and interest of buildings in the urban environment, numerous studies have focused on automatically extracting building outlines by exploiting different datasets and techniques. Recent advancements in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and their associated sensors have made it possible to obtain high-resolution data to update building information. These detailed, up-to-date geogra...... hiện toàn bộ
The frequent occurrence of building collapse accidents not only causes significant casualties, but also jeopardizes local economies. This paper adopts a combinatory assessment approach to showcase the lessons learned from a recent building collapse in Changsha, China. The proposed approach blends the system thinking approach and strategic environmental assessment (SEA) model. It delineates the cau...... hiện toàn bộ
Real estate plays a crucial role in driving national economies. However, the process of transferring properties and engaging with various stakeholders can be hindered by a lack of adequate information, complex procedures, and excessive paperwork. The advent of digital real estate has revolutionized the industry and how stakeholders interact. The present study aims to conduct a bibliometric and sys...... hiện toàn bộ

In this study, we investigated the application of the deep mixing method (DMM) to cohesive soil in the Saga Lowland of Kyushu, Japan. The study focused on examining three types of water-cement ratio (W/C) conditions, with a constant addition of cement-based binder (C). Due to the soft clay nature of the Saga Lowland, frequent ground settlement and deformation occur, necessitating measures to preve...... hiện toàn bộ
Waterlogging in subway stations has a devastating impact on normal operation of important urban facilities and can cause harm to passengers and property. It is difficult to assess the vulnerability of metro stations to waterlogging because many complex factors are involved. This study proposes a hybrid model to assess the vulnerability of subway stations to waterlogging by integrating the entropy ...... hiện toàn bộ
Wind-driven sand erosion is the leading primary reason of earth deterioration in dry lands and a major global issue. Desert dust emissions and topsoil degradation caused by wind pose a global danger to the ecosystem, economy, and individual health. The aim of the current study is to critically analyze the different types of biopolymers and their interaction mechanism with sands for desert sand sta...... hiện toàn bộ
